#1National Tour of Chicago
Posted: 5/31/11 at 9:49pmI'm so excited about seeing "Chicago" on Saturday, June 18th in Fort Worth, Texas. It will be an approximate 188 mile drive. Does anyone know who's playing Roxie and Velma in the national tour cast? Just wondering.... RC in Austin, Texas
"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Posted: 5/31/11 at 10:13pmI will hopefully be there as well during the run! I am curious, though, also. We all know John O'Hurley is playing Billy, but the CHICAGO website doesn't even list the rest of the cast.

Posted: 5/31/11 at 10:13pmMy faux Playbill is in my car, so I will bring it in and report back. Velma was played by the actress who originated the role (perhaps re-launched might be a better term, I think) in Montreal and Paris. They were both excellent. I am suspicious of game show hosts in touring productions, but John O'Hurley was great too.

Terra MacLeod as Velma Kelly
Tracy Shayne as Roxie Hart
John O' Hurley as Billy Flynn

EDIT: This could pretty much be what the Playbill lists, too... It has the same cast members, as listed above.
